When our family goes over to my grandmother’s house for dinner, there’s always a pot of soup ready on the stove. Likewise, I usually have a soup dish whenever I make a Chinese family-style dinner. I’m not sure if this version of egg drop soup can be counted as authentic Chinese. Maybe it’s more of a Chinese-American hybrid. Either way, it’s super easy to make. Only four ingredients needed and can be ready in five minutes!

Of course, you can use homemade chicken broth. I usually do. Just use equal volumes of chicken broth to creamed corn. This recipe can easily be doubled as well.
